Upcoming Free Webinar on GX-ETS Pricing and J-Credit Trends
Exroad Inc., headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, is set to host a valuable free webinar titled
"Considerations on GX-ETS Pricing Limits and J-Credit Price Trends" on January 20, starting at 11:00 AM. This event aims to shed light on the latest developments in the carbon credit framework and emission trading system, particularly focusing on GX-ETS initiatives.
On December 19, 2025, during the 7th committee meeting on the emissions trading system, the secretariat presented a plan regarding GX-ETS pricing limits. The proposed plan establishes a lower limit of 1,700 yen per ton and an upper limit of 4,300 yen per ton for the fiscal year 2026. Furthermore, from 2027 onwards, the price will be calculated by adding a 3% increase to the inflation rate.
In parallel, the J-Credit prices have also shown a notable upward trend since April 2024, according to data from the Tokyo Stock Exchange's carbon credit market. The close relationship between the pricing trends of GX-ETS emission allowances and J-Credits underscores the importance of these indicators for companies contemplating decarbonization investments and long-term procurement strategies.
The webinar will feature guest speaker Mr. Mikito Takebayashi from the Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry. He will provide detailed analysis on the proposed GX-ETS pricing limits and recent trends concerning J-Credit prices. Mr. Takebayashi holds a doctorate in Commerce from Kobe University's Graduate School of Business Administration and has significant expertise in environmental economics, transport economics, spatial economics, and industrial organization.
Agenda for the Webinar:
- - Speaker introduction
- - Explanation of the GX-ETS pricing proposal
- - Analysis of J-Credit price trends
- - Q&A session
The Central Research Institute of Electric Power Industry published a discussion paper in October 2025, offering comprehensive insights into the J-Credit price trends in the carbon credit market. This is particularly beneficial for stakeholders in sustainability, management planning, and carbon credit development departments.
